  • 440 g (151/2 oz/2 cups) fresh berries
  • 2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
  • 45 g (11/2 oz/1/3 cup) slivered almonds

 

Cashew Nut Cream

Ingredients:

  • 155 g (51/2 oz/1 cup) raw cashew nuts
  • 170 ml (2/3 cup) filtered water
  • 8 drops stevia liquid
  • 1 teaspoon alcohol-free vanilla essence (optional)

 

Method

1. To make the cashew nut cream, place all the ingredients in a food processor and whizz until smooth and creamy.
